Chifles are thin slices of plantain that are deep fried and sprinkled with salt. They are a popular snack in Peru and Ecuador, where vendors offer bags of them to the passing cars. They are savory, more like potato chips than banana chips. Plantains become softer and sweeter as they ripen, and ​chifles are best made while the fruit is still yellow and firm. Serve them with guacamole as ​an appetizer or enjoy them as a snack.
